“Salesforce reimagined AI, bringing it out of the lab and into the hands of business users with Salesforce Einstein, which now generates more than 475 million predictions every day,” said John Ball, GM and SVP, Salesforce Einstein.
myLightning enables admins to specify brand images, colors, page background images and more to align with their brand.
